2005 Boards Member bellpeppers is sharing with us a very cool commercial for Transformers: Age Of Extinction, advertising the GAC Trumpchi GS5 SUV. You may remember that GAC was a sponsor for the movie and one of their cars; the Trumpchi e-Jet was even featured in the movie.
VFX Artist Joaquim Montserrat is sharing this video and he has this to say: A commercial for GAC GS5, a chinese SUV that is sponsoring the Transformers 4 movie. This is the VFX edit as nearly 20% of the VFX were cut from the broadcasted edit. This was graded in Resolve, modeled and animated in Max, rendered with VRay and composited in Nuke. Credits:
You can find the "Making of" video at Vimeo as well. |

The Loyal Subjects just posted via Twitter a teaser of what seems to be our first glimpse of possibly one of their wave 4 figures, Jetfire, along side a fan's sketch of the character. This is pretty exciting considering wave 3 is not released yet, nor is the full listing of characters for the wave. Another interesting thing is that on the side of Jetfire there is a hole for a button. A similar hole was used for Wave 2's Optimus Prime's speech box.

Wow that was quick. One of our sponsors, BigBadToyStore just updated their listing for MP-05G with a fresh out of box image. Megatron is spotting a new metallic gold chrome finish, separating itself from prior releases and reissues of the mold which showcased Megatron's traditional silver color scheme.

Happy Thursday! We've got some great in-hand images of Masterpiece Bumblebee to share with you this morning, courtesy of dlarirang from ACToys!
You can see from these images that Masterpiece Bumblebee is appropriately short for his diminutive stature - he's around the size of a small deluxe. Worry not though because dlarirang reports that the transformation is satisfyingly complicated particularly with respect of the legs. The color is also described as being fairly close to the orange end of yellow - no bright yellow Bees here! It's noted that the fists are different from past Masterpieces and are a solid piece, without articulated fingers likely owing to the smaller size. Check out the images after the break and get excited for the Masterpiece series release of the little yellow 'bot! |

Thanks to the weibo page of Leopard Boxers, Eric Tan on Facebook, and 2005 Board user UranusDD, we have some in-hand and final images of Mastermind Creations R-08, Azalea. This take on IDW's interpretation of Arcee is shipping now. She features a cybertronian styled vehicle mode and twin swords and as we can see from these pictures, a ton of poseability. These pictures also offer us some comparison shots with Classics Hot Rod and Generations Voyager Springer
Take a look at the images after the break! |

Via the twitter account of Yuki Ohshima we have some in-hand images of the Transformers Legends LG-02 Convoy aka Optimus Primal. This new release of the original 1996 Ultra Class toy from Beast Wars features the tweaked tooling originally used when the mold was rereleased in 2006 for the Beast Wars 10th Anniversary. For those unfamiliar, Yuki Ohshima was the artist who the Kiss Players manga, and designed the female characters for that series. Looks like he is on art for this new line - which could be interesting once the female Autobots come around... !
Takara-Tomy's own PR twitter has also released an in-box image of both Convoy and Rattle (Rattrap) along with the original teaser image of the femmebots Arcee, Windblade and Chromia, now un-silhouetted! |

Via Meteor Operation we have learned that Hasbro Asia have teamed up with Ocean Design to offer some official upgrade stickers for Masterpiece Prowl and Masterpiece Wheeljack. These sets add in lots of extra details like Wheeljack's sponsorship details or Prowl's chevrons on his shoulders. There are also some other optional ones on both sets, such as Chinese police logos for Prowl.
These are being offered now on Taobao and other sellers who carry the Ocean Designs stickers. |

Courtesy of Mr. Elljay on weibo, we have prototype pictures of an upcoming figure from the 3rd party group Warbotron. Pictured here is their unofficial take on the Technobot, Lightspeed. This will most likely be the second release for their unofficial Technobots, following WB-03A (Afterburner). A release date is not provided with these pictures, but price was you can expect it to be the same for WB-03A.
Check out the new images after the break. |

Transformers Asia has updated with the reveal of their next exclusive release in the Asia Premium series. They will be offering a two pack of the Human Alliance Soundwave and Barricade toys from Dark of the Moon and Revenge of the Fallen's toylines. This is a great chance to get these toys if you missed out on them before especially the Soundwave who never got a US release.
This duo is due for a release in December 2014, and given the "Asia Premium Series" designation may sport some flash new paintjobs, though the pictures so far do not support this. |

Takara-Tomy have updated their website with details of a new Micron prize campaign. For November, they will be offering an Arms Micron Carnivac (named for the Generation 1 Pretender brought to life by Simon Furman in the classic Cry Wolf and Prey stories). This Micron seems to be inspired by the wolves on Lockdown's ship, called Steeljaw in the US line.
Carnivac is a redeco of Classics Mini-Con Overbite, and will be available in November exclusively through Toys R Us Japan with a purchase of 3,000 yen or more of Transformers products. He's limited to 10,000 pieces total according to Takara-Tomy's website. |

Takara-Tomy will also be offering a new store exclusive release in December 2014. The Black Knight version of Strafe follows on from the other Black Knight releases such as Grimlock, Scorn and Slug, and rounds out Takara-Tomy's black decos of the on-screen Dinobots.
Black Knight Strafe will be offered as an exclusive through all stores that are in the Cybertron Satellite program. He's going to cost 3,200 yen at retail but expect that to rise on the secondary market. |

Amiami have updated with some new images of the D-Style Convoy figure. This figure is a licensed, non-transforming version of Convoy / Optimus Prime in a super-deformed "big head" style. He's got accessories including rifle, axe, Matrix, alternate hands and a little cutesified version of the truck mode. Check out these new images for a fresh look at this Convoy.
